💅 LXC-DELETE — it's the lxc command line client, bestie (section 1 of the manual, obviously)

okay so real talk: this page is part of the LXD - Command line client(1) manual. like, that's the whole manual name. we're in it. welcome. 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

lxc-delete — delete instances and snapshots. that's it. that's the job. it removes stuff. 🗑️✨

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

lxc delete [:][/] [[:][/]...] [flags]

look at those brackets. look at them. so many of them. they're placeholders, babes — you fill in the [:][/] bits and you can stack more than one, and then there's [flags] at the end for all your lil options. slay. 💅

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Description: delete instances and snapshots.

that's genuinely the whole description fr fr. it deletes instances, it deletes snapshots. iconic minimalism, no notes. 👑

🔥 OPTIONS 🔥

  • -f, --force[=false] — force the removal of running instances. like, it will go through with it even if the thing is still running. use with intent, bestie. 💀
  • -i, --interactive[=false] — require user confirmation. it'll stop and ask you first before doing the thing. very "are you sure, girl?" energy. 🙈
ngl both of these default to false, so out of the box it's neither forcing nor asking. just so you know. 💖

🧚 OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS 🧚

these ones come from the parent command, so they're not unique to delete — they're the family traits. 💜

  • --debug[=false] — show all debug messages. every single one. the whole firehose. 🫶
  • --force-local[=false] — force using the local unix socket.
  • -h, --help[=false] — print help. your classic little helper. ⭐
  • --project="" — override the source project`` (and yes, those two stray backticks at the end are literally in the original, i'm not doing a bit, that's just how it's written 😭)
  • -q, --quiet[=false] — don't show progress information. silence. peace. calm. 🌸
  • --sub-commands[=false] — use with help or --help to view sub-commands.
  • -v, --verbose[=false] — show all information messages. the chatty mode. 🌈
  • --version[=false] — print version number.

🎀 SEE ALSO 🎀
